The chat system is a nuisance.

That is an odd, hard to remember combo. The old style worked fairly well. -
Thanks!

DCS Newsletter - JAN 08 Discussion
Flogger23m replied to SkateZilla's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
Really looking forward to the MIG-29 and Su-33 upgrades. Any word on a template for the MIG-29? -
I will be doing it when the template is done. Check out my F-15C one in the mean time. Download here: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1446980/ Keep in mind AC6 skins are a bit different from 5, and I will replicate the 5 (original) one which may look a bit different. I would also like to do some (Ace Combat, AC04 Ace scheme, others) for the MIG-29 assuming we get a template for it whenever the 3D model is done.

Thank you that worked. Is there a list of each line for every aircraft somewhere? Each one has a slightly different structure which confuses me. Maybe I'm missing something very obvious. But once again, thanks!

I did disable the star layer, so while they don't show in the .PSD or saved .dds files they do appear on in game. What my .lau looks like:

Hello, Trying to finish up a KA-50 skin using the official template. Looking through the .lau and I can't seem to figure out how to disable the Russian red star from appearing on the vertical stabilizer? Does anyone have a link explaining how the .lau and emblems work in general? It is always the most confusing part for me.
-
That is too bad. But they do have two extra hard points, so I will take the 7/9 over the AV8B anyways.
-
GR7/GR9 assuming we get Brimstone missiles. Plus it has two extra hard points.
-
Last I read it is coming. Still no date. I suppose it will be done soon.
-
I'm up for it, but I believe it is included already? Saw some official screens with a desert scheme some weeks back. Another way to put it: Mirage III is the counterpart to the MIG-21 Mirage F1 to MIG-23 Mirage 2000 to MIG-29
-
I suppose those skins were converted from the FSX version? I plan on making fictional skins. Most likely a few Ace Combat ones but may do fictional French/other air forces. Any suggestions would be welcome.

What to do with the Open Beta 1.5 Installation now?
Flogger23m replied to LeCuvier's topic in General Bugs
Update V1.2 (or download the installer). Most of the content will be copied over. Delete beta branch. Or keep it if you want more frequent (but less stable) updates. I imagine the beta will move over to 2.0 in the coming weeks. -
I planned on doing a few of those already. Would just like references for all sides. I know some of the ones in that link have artwork on the bottom. Problem is most other references are low in quality. But mainly awaiting the template + an update. I can't view the 3D model in game yet as I am on V1.5 and don't own the module. Can't seem to find the 3D model for Model Viewer either.

I just hope the AI units are compatible with other maps and those that don't have it. The map itself and campaigns are understandable, but searching for each addon AI unit to delete when making an MP version of the mission would be a pain. Even locking it in with aircraft modules will hinder it. Not everyone will buy a Viggen or F-14. But that may be better than simply selling it standalone. I do wonder if the price is lowered enough so that everyone buys the maps because the cost is insignificant. As in the ~ $5 range. At that price point I think most maps would be bought by just about everyone. Now the obvious question - will that be enough to turn a profit? We can't say for sure. Though I am wondering what map the F-14 will get. Hopefully not another desert map.

Thanks for the reply. Looking forward to it.

Keep in mind the Mirage 4000 was to be a counterpart to the larger class of fighters. Of course it never went into production; only the 2000 did.
-
Hello, Is there a template available? If there isn't, will Razbam release an official one?
-
No standalone installer any more?
Flogger23m replied to Gloom Demon's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
Not the biggest deal in the world, but I liked being able to do something else while I downloaded the modules. Minimizing the current version of DCS just doesn't happen. -
Compared to its contemporaries it was rather equal. The F-16 carried the following: 6x short range heat seeking missiles. No long range radar guided missiles. The MIG-29 carried: 2x BVR radar guided missiles, 4x short range heat seeking missiles. Or 6x short range missiles. If we go a generation back to the Mirage F1 and MIG-23 the payload is roughly similar. As technology progressed they got upgraded. The F-16 can now carry BVR weapons, up to 6 air to air missiles total. This is less than the 8 the Mirage 2000-5 or 5 MK2/9 can carry.
-
It will be updated. Currently the MIG-29 is next and I believe the 3D model is almost done. Then the flight model. I assume the Su-33 is next. But I imagine both aircraft are secondary to newer modules.

Like the Mirage 2000 shots.

So whats keeping the steam 2.0 & nevada map update?
Flogger23m replied to oscar19681's topic in Steam Support
There is a beta option for a reason. Plenty of games do this. ED isn't unique in offering a retail build alongside a beta version. This is false. Valve does not set prices, the developer/publishers do. Including sale prices, discounts and duration. ED could sell their modules for 50 cents or $500 if they wanted to. All that being said I can see them running the alpha in their own client only. It isn't mandatory and as it is unfinished work I can see why they prefer to do it in house only. As long as the retail versions on Steam get timely updates I don't see much of a problem. This is likely why beta modules are no longer sold on Steam to. -
Do we need to create an account for Rafflecopter or does it automatically use our facebook account? Personally I am not a fan of these kinds of apps because there is no real information and it is all hidden if available at all.
